From SIFL President Thom Hager:

Summer Conference Set For July 28-30

Our goal is to grow this league into two divisions in 2010. This will allow a simple playoff format. The top seeded teams compete for their division title and those winners meet in the championship game.

SIFL Summer League Conference has been set for July 28 - July 30, 2009 at the Coushatta Casino Resort in Kinder, Louisiana.

We've planned a casual reception for all attendees on Tuesday, July 28th after you've had time to check in, relax, explore the resort, and even try your luck. For all SIFL prospective owners, we have scheduled a brief "newcomer reception" on Wednesday evening July 29th immediately after the final afternoon session.

We look forward to sharing our vision with you and hearing your ideas on how to build a stronger, healthier, and exciting league for 2010.

If you are interested in learning more about the Southern Indoor Football League, please call our office at 866-898-SIFL (7435) or e-mail any staff personnel.
